Miss USA Comes Out For Marriage Equality | Alyssa Campanella said on television today in response to a question about whether she supports equal marriage rights for gay and lesbian couples, “I believe in equal rights. I believe that everyone deserves equal protection.” And it turns out she posed for a NOH8 ad, too.

And world peace.”
